Karen,
It's great isn't it?  Did you see the second volume as well?  I pre-ordered
both before they were printed )OK, so the vet who wrote them is a friend of
mine, but I knew they'd be great!).  As a matter of fact, the teeth of the
12-year-old gelding in the 2nd volume belong to mine -- how's that for a
bizarre claim to fame?  Ron said he's in there again but I need to look for
where.  Several half-siblings are in the first volume, too.  Ron worked on a
number of horses from our barn.
Ron and Susan are great and I definitely second your endorsement!
